Corruption is an unresolved issue world-wide and it influences society negatively in many respects. Researchers have tried to understand and suggest methods to control it from different perspectives. Improving government transparency and responsibility through citizen participation has often been suggested as a solution. The development of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) over the past two decades has brought great changes to citizen participation and has lead to the rise of e-participation. Digital tools enable citizens to participate in a more efficient and convenient way. Could e-participation play a significant role in anti-corruption policy? Controlling for the impacts of economy, democracy, education, economic openness, government system, party system, gender, and population at the national level, this study confirms that e-participation has a significant influence on the perception of corruption at the national level. Countries with better e-participation have lower levels of corruption. Consistent with previous studies, the impacts of economy, democracy, economic openness, government system, and party system on corruption are also supported by this study.
